The notion of perfectionism, which is defined as a positive notion in terms of meeting predefined standards in a perfect way, paves the way, when not controlled, to determine standards and objectives which can't be fulfilled in no circumstances. Thus, objectives that can't be met result in failures and a deterioration of the state of health of individuals. The very fact that the educators be aware of the perception style of pupils/students in terms of perfectionism and apply education techniques in conformity with these perceptions could be an important factor so that the study and learning level of the students not be affected in a negative manner.This survey is a descriptive study where we tried to evaluate the perceptions about perfectionism of the students who study business administration in the Faculties of Economics and Administrative Sciences in the University of GAZİ and the University of Recep Tayyip Erdoğan. A personal information form containing socio-demographic data and ''Multi-Dimensional Perfectionism Scale'', which was developed by Hewitt and Flett (1991) and translated into Turkish by Oral (1999), were used, respectively, to collect data and survey the perceptions of the said students in terms of perfectionism in this data. The perception of 580 students (370 from GAZİ University and 210 from the University of RecepTayipErdoğan) with regard to perfectionism have been tested and evaluated within the scope of the survey. The outcomes of the survey revealed significant differences, in statistical terms, between the perfectionism determined by others and gender, number of siblings and the location where the family dwells which are the sub-dimensions of perfectionism, and perfectionism directed to others and the educational background of mothers. Keywords: perfectionism, business education

Abstract Background Intentional injuries refer to injuries resulting from purposeful human action, whether directed at oneself or others. This study was performed to assess intentional injuries in Iranian university students. Methods This cross-sectional study was carried out with 430 female and male university in three higher education institutions located in the northern part of Iran in the year 2015. Samples were chosen through the stratified cluster random sampling method. They were requested to fill out the demographic data form and the Persian version of the Youth Risk Behavior Survey Questionnaire. Descriptive and inferential statistics were used for data analysis via the SPSS v.13 software. Findings Intentional injuries were more frequent in the male university students than female (p < 0.05). Also, 9.1% and 6.7% of the university students were physically injured or sexually assaulted by a boy/girl friend. No statistically significant difference was reported in dating violence between the male and female university students. The logistic regression test showed that the history of stealing money from parents without their permission, son’s preferences in the family and gender are the most important predisposing factors for the university students’ intentional injury. Conclusion It is suggested that health policy makers consider the role of family in programs that have been designed for improving the health of young people.

Özet Bu çalışmanın amacı üniversite öğrencilerinin cinsiyet, cinsiyet rolleri ve her iki değişkenin homofobi düzeyi üzerinde, ortak etki gösterip göstermediğini incelemektir. Araştırmanın örneklemini Çukurova Üniversitesinin farklı bölümlerinde öğrenim gören 202’si kız (%63) ve 118’i erkek (%37) olmak üzere toplam 320 öğrenci oluşturmuştur. Veriler Kişisel Bilgi Formu, Bem Cinsiyet Rolü ve Hudson ve Ricket Homofobi Ölçekleri aracılığıyla toplanmıştır. Elde edilen bulgular üniversite öğrencilerinin homofobi puanlarının cinsiyet ve cinsiyet rolü açısından anlamlı düzeyde farklılaştığını göstermektedir. Buna göre erkekler ve cinsiyet rolü erkeksi olanların homofobi ölçeğinden aldıkları puanlar anlamlı düzeyde daha yüksek bulunmuştur. Ancak cinsiyet ve cinsiyet rolü ortak etkisinin homofobi üzerinde anlamlı rol oynamadığı tespit edilmiştir.
